FUCK neocities stop sending my messages early. okay. sorry. 1. a couple people I knew got banned from neocities, their sites were eventually restored but it made me nervous
2. I was really tired of having to copy and paste updates to my nav over every page of my site, so the ability to use PHP and server side includes was a huge draw and can now confirm it's great.
I'm definitely very happy over there. im definitely still wanting to keep a presence here but i feel like neocities is really restrictive in not allowing stuff like PHP or SSI
chiming in to add that i was one of those people claire's talking about lol. there's a post on my blog about this. i've also since moved my main hosting elsewhere
The whole reason I moved hosts! Seconding this- if you're at a point where you're repeating the same code on a ton of pages and it's hard to maintain, SSI is SO worth the move.
oh my gosh that means so much, thank you ;_;
